April Empties #2

Hope you've all had a good April! I worked my way through a fair few products this month, so without further ado, here's my thoughts on each one...

Simply Home Yankee Candle in Vanilla Frosting 538g - £13.00

Technically I used this up in March, but forgot to include it in the post - oops! This has a quite a sweet vanilla scent but I really like it and think it's a scent that works all year round.

Re-purchase? I would definitely buy this scent again.

Melt Luxury Glass Jar Candle in Eden* - £21.00

The scent of this candle is very fresh; woody but slightly sweet, so I think it is a nice scent for the Autumn or Spring seasons. I really like the design on the jar too. Full review here.

Re-purchase? Not at the moment due to the high end price.

Girlz Only Dry Shampoo in Dawn til Dusk 150ml - £1.50

This is a pretty regular empty of mine! I do like Batiste but I think this dry shampoo is just as good as Batiste's standard versions, plus it's cheaper and overall you do get more ml for your £. Dawn til Dusk is my favourite Girlz Only offering as it has an uplifting citrus scent. Full review here.

Re-purchase? Yes.

Organic Surge Citrus Mint Shower Gel 250ml* - £4.35

If you want a gorgeously scented, SLS free, affordable shower gel then look no further. I love the blend of citrus and mint together, which is perfect to use in the mornings as it's such a revitalising scent. My other half stole it away in the end as he liked it so much!

Re-purchase? I have way too many shower gels to even consider buying any right now, but in the future, yes.

Lush Rose Jam Shower Gel 100g - £4.65

Ahhhh this is such a lovely product! I hope Lush release it at Christmas again this year. The formula is quite thick - actually quite jam like! - and the scent is beautiful. It's primarily floral but with a hint of sweet lemon. I may even prefer this to Snow Fairy...

Re-purchase? If it's released, yes - though I'll probably wait until the Boxing Day sale again to get it cheap!

Antipodes Divine Face Oil 30ml - £18.99

It's no secret that I love this stuff. It's hydrating, re-balancing, softening, soothing, plumping, scar reducing... all with a bunch of natural ingredients, many of which are organic. My skin drinks it.

Re-purchase? I ordered another bottle as soon as I knew this one was getting low.

Macadamia Deep Repair Masque 30ml - £3.75I received this sachet at a blogger event. A little goes a long way, meaning this lasted for many, many uses. This intensive conditioner smells absolutely amazing and makes my hair so soft and silky - I feel like I've been to the salon after I've used it!Re-purchase? 100% yes! In fact a 250ml tub turned up at my door just the other day...

What products have you used up this month? Are you a fan of any of the above?Beauty Bird xx
